Shoe run- It was a good run.  Nothing to complain about.  Still a little tight, but not as bad as yesterday.  We jumped in sanberg (however you spell it) pond and it was FREEZING!!  We came back and did striders, but hunter also needed someone to run with for a while on the track so I ran just a little bit with him.

3 in the morning- woke up late so I ran by myself pretty much the whole run.

7- trail run out by the lava rock...I love running trails because they are not only speed but agility and power.  But the best are long hills on trails...they really prove who is the longest lasting heart and is true power instead of just speed.  I like the feeling of going up a steep, long hill and getting to the top more than running a fast workout. I think that is personal preference....but I think after high school I am going to run trails A LOT they are fun and I think I have the body for it!  I am excited for track though! wrote down all of my goals for track and xc this year on a piece of paper!!

We ran out into the desert today.  Just kinda used our hack-a-meters to guess how far we ran.  It was a really fun run, kinda spontaneous.  Felt good, nothing to complain about.

Today I ran 5 went down towards hunters but turned on the right street before hunters hill...It was a good run, felt a little lethargic today but I still ran about a 7-7:30 pace so it was good.  I didn't eat much before hand just an orange and some cheese cake.  I know its weird but I am REALLY excited to do track workouts and work really hard to reach my goals.

ran 3 at the am run and 9 at the pm run.  We ran out on the dam road.  Below the ball of my calf was tight and also my left arch REALLY hurt and felt it was too tight.  I will stretch more and see how it feels tomorrow.

A.M.-3, it was a great run.  Just me and michael no tyson...haha sleeping in seems to be a reoccurance ;) ha

P.M.- 6, it was a great run and went out to do dirty sock run.  Tyson and michael tried to carry a chair about 50 yards then drop it, to be cool I guess.  I stretched to get my arch feeling good and it worked.  Noticed before the run my muscles were REALLY tight.

A.M.- 3 Arctic Circle and back.  Good run.

P.M.- Trail Thursday and we ran out by Dixie Rock.  Felt really good and on the way back a really long hill that I felt I dominated!  I love trail running, it always feels good.  Really a great run.

A.M.- 3 Arctic Circle and back.

P.M.- 6 miles over sunrise.  I started pretty solid on the foremaster hill and then  tyson and michael started pretty much racing and so I yelled to Tyson "Is that a challenge?!" unfortunately I wasn't up for the challenge because I started my move too late and tyson say me coming haha.  NEXT TIME TYSON! haha Felt great, a little tight but nothing serious.

Today we ran the dog town course.  It was really easy and felt really nice.  I worked on keeping my stride quick, because Coach says my form is good when I keep my feet quick.  We also had a 2 mile tempo at the end.  We were suppose to run 5:45 pace, but Michael, Tyson, and I went 5:30 pace and maybe faster at the end.  Funny thing was that Tyson thought I said we were going 5:47 pace and sped up ha.  I felt good on the tempo, and when I started to fall off a little I relaxed and quickened my feet to keep up and then it was easy.  Best run in a while, the course was really cool going down by hell's hole.

Today we woke up early at 8 and ran sunrise hills.  We ran 4x400 and 4x200 (half-way up the hill) which I felt I dominated this workout.  I ran the hills pretty fast and I felt I was the most consistent.  We then ran over sunrise hill back to the school.  I felt really good and am ready to dominate track!  I am so excited that I just can't hide...name that song.  Anyway, track time trial wendsday and I am ubber excited. 

Afternoon-3 easy run

AM- 3 easy 

PM-6 miles w/ striders it was kind of a random run.  We went down to the river trail, but then went to the other way on the trail.  It was easy and fun, maybe a little bit of tight legs. The striders I worked on and had pretty quick feet.  Excited for our time trial tomorrow!

It was a good race, could've gone faster, but I was a little unsure of how to go about it considering it was my first track race EVER! holly cow....it goes by way faster than xc races...I kinda like it!  I am ready to improve a lot more!  I think I could've stayed with tyson if I hadn't freaked out mentally.  I will probably cut off a lot more in the next race because its a real race and I know to race it now!

I started out really well.  Tyson and I were running about a 5:17 pace for the first 2 or 3 miles, then I started to fall off Tyson and its hard to keep pace without someone to help...so I dropped to about a 5:50 pace and devin and michael caught me and I hung with them for about a mile then fell off the pace of them because my hamstrings were tired.  I tried to regroup and was successful in picking up the pace for about 1/2 mile then byron and curls caught me and I couldn't keep pace with them for too long and I dropped to about a 6:30 pace.  By the time I regrouped it was too far for me to catch them at what pace I could go.  Then these two other runners caught me and I was staying with them (within like 10 feet) for about 2-3 miles and noticed that when I positively coached myself by saying things like "you can do this, they are not out of reach." and "they aren't going too fast for you to catch them." really helped but I began getting negative again so I only could close it to about 5-10 feet.  Then another guy in red passed me by the hill by hunters house and I stayed with him for a while.  We passed michael cause he was having some sort of side ache and we hit staheli hill and it hurt a lot and the guy in red (as I called him in my head) pulled away quite a bit.  I was going about 5:50 down the hill then when we hit the more level, slightly up hill ground I reduced to 7 min pace because I had little left in my legs.  I continued this until the last mile where michael and some other guy passed me but I had nothing left to go with them.  Good race for not specifically training for this race.  I learned some important things from this and can't wait to apply it to track!
